The fixed contact can be bent a slight amount but they may be brittle. If the bimetal is moving and it's contact is touching the fixed contact and nothing is happening, there could still be a hard oxide buildup on the contact surfaces. It could be the bimetal is not making a good solid contact at 7 seconds and needs some continued heater time to bend the bimetal more to provide increased pressure.

If another go with a cleaning doesn't improve the time then you could try a small bend to change the position of the surface area where the contacts are meeting.
